Granite Rash - Round 2

This afternoon I met up with Gwilym and we went hunting for the best weather in Devon. To my amazement this turned out to be on Dartmoor! We visited Hound Tor and Bonehill Rocks ticking a few good boulder problems and doing some easy traversing.

The day was cut short by the steep Twin Cracks 5b at Bonehill whose sharp granite crystals cleanly sliced through Gwilym's hand! Hopefully the weekend will bring some more sunshine and quality trad routes.
